How to securely reverse-proxy ASP.NET Core web apps
However, it's very unlikely that .NET developers will directly expose their Kestrel-based web apps to the internet. Typically, we use other popular web servers like Nginx, Traefik, and Caddy to act as a reverse-proxy in front of Kestrel for various reasons:
- Ask HN: Is nginx.org (the domain-name itself) gone?

Freenginx: Core Nginx Developer Announces Fork of Popular Web Server
> I actually don't understand why I am seeing arguments like this all the time.
Have a look at:
https://github.com/nginx/nginx/blob/master/src/http/modules/...
It's got the whole checklist: nginx idiosyncratic module system, inline parsing, custom utf conversion, buffer preallocation and adjustments, linked lists, comments about side effects of custom allocator, and probably other things.
It's not easy to deal with source like that and any serious improvement to that area would effectively be a rewrite anyway.
Since anything doing work in nginx is a module anyway, it wouldn't even have to be a full rewrite in one go.

Web CGI programs aren't particularly slow these days
Apache’s mod_fastcgi’s last commit was 2 weeks ago:
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/trunk/
It’s a fork of what you linked (and was more popular afaik back when fastcgi was state of the art, and apache was the undisputed champion of web servers).
These days, nginx has more market share than apache, and its fastcgi module is one of the more recently updated ones in its source tree (5 months vs multiple years):
https://github.com/nginx/nginx/tree/master/src/http/modules
If I was going to build an embedded web server, I’d start with nostd rust, probably with though axum + tokio, since thats already memory safe-ish.
If I needed fastcgi for some reason (dynamically loadable endpoints, or os-level isolation), there are at least four implementations of fastcgi for it. No idea if any are decent though.
